You pull it over your head, snug the tie under the bust to wherever it sits comfortably on you, and that's the fitting done. It's the dress women take on a week's trip when they want one thing that covers dinner, a ceremony they're a guest at, and the drive to the airport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit\u003c\/strong\u003e — empire waist with an adjustable drawstring tie at the front\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeckline\u003c\/strong\u003e — scoop square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e — fully lined through the top, vertical bust darts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e — knee length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure\u003c\/strong\u003e — pull-over, no zip or buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% rayon, made in Hawaii, USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel\u003c\/strong\u003e — RJC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe empire drawstring does most of the work here — it takes in or lets out the fit right under the bust, so a fuller waist or a mid-pregnancy shape is no obstacle. Above the tie, the vertical bust darts give the bodice actual shaping instead of a flat tube, and the top is lined so there's no need to worry about what shows through. Below the tie the rayon falls loose and skims rather than clings. Because it pulls over the head with no zip, check the shoulder and bust room first; the waist will follow wherever you set it. Knee length reads at true knee on average height and slightly below on a shorter frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeing a wedding guest in the heat, sunset dinners, a lu'au where you'd rather not fight a long hem, church, and travel days where you want to look put together after six hours in a seat. Flat sandals in the afternoon, a heeled sandal at night — the knee length works with both.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRayon: cold wash on gentle or dry clean, hang to dry, warm iron. Keep it out of a hot dryer — heat is what shrinks rayon and puts a permanent set in the drawstring channel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Shop MauiShirts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e28 years selling Hawaiian clothing from our Maui showroom, since 1998\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe give you construction detail — lining, darts, closure — not just a photo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAsk us a fit question before you order and a person answers it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping to anywhere in the USA and its territories — no minimum order.
